hundreds of patients on insulin pumps, from various parts of the world
being
followed up via tele medicine program.What about a pump which will display
blood sugars automatically? The first Paradigm Real time Pump (Paradigm
722)
was deployed in JDC on October 22, 2006.This NEW pump has a sensor and
with
the help of a separate transmitter and sensor needle will easure blood
sugars every 10 seconds and via radio frequency (RF) waves will transmit
them to the pump and will display blood sugars in the pump screen every 5
minutes.The patient can also set low and high sugars for alarms and adjust
insulin dosages accordingly.
